in the past i got cajoeled into caming for that reason and within minutes theyre trying to Dom you into removing youre clothes and when you refuse youre then accused of not being a real sub.

its a downward spirral of mistrust that goes from bad to worse.

if they need you to prove youreself this early on its a red flag and you pass.  doesnt matter if they call you a fake, doesnt matter at all.  you know youre not and thats all that matters.

people get forced into the feeling that they need to prove who they are, what they are and everything else in between. 

a phone call is all thats needed to settle that argument but why bother. distrustful people are all kinds of unnecessary hastle.

.... and also they want some free porn


Or a sub could look at it as a heckuva litmus test for any potential dominant partners.:-)

Now I should note that I don't have a cam, have never asked anyone to cam (I prefer to actually meet FtF), and really find the whole thing kinda tawdry, but I can understand why folks ask and see at least one reason it's not a ridiculous request.



you dont have a cam?  *haz a sad*

(my kittehs say hi to yours)

I agree with this. 

GypsyCowgirl, I know that you said that you're a newbie, but it's still a waste of your time trying to figure out why people do stupid things.

You've apparently specified that you only want to meet local people.  Therefore, you should ignore any messages that you get that don't meet that criteria.  Also, as a woman, it is much more dangerous for you to meet a local guy than it is for him to meet you.  So if anyone should be asking for webcam verification, it's you.  But since you feel comfortable meeting in person, then why shouldn't he?

One sad fact of this site (and most other sites like it) is that most of the people who will contact you are actually living in a fantasy world.  They have fantasized about BDSM, but they are too scared to actually give it a try.  So instead, they do silly things like you've apparently been experiencing.  The easy solution is to simply tell them that you don't own a webcam.

Since you're new, I'll offer you this piece of advice; the first step in actually establishing a successful relationship with someone here on CM is simply to show up at the in-person meeting.  That may sound like it's so basic that it doesn't even need to be said.  However, once you've been on here a bit longer, you'll come to realize that 90% of the people on here are too scared to actually show up at a meeting.  Sure, they'll tell you that they're going to meet you.  But when you get to the meeting place, they'll be a no-show.  My guess is that these are the types of people who have been contacting you and asking to webcam rather than agreeing to meet you.

Even though you're a newbie, if you actually show up at a meeting, it will immediately put you in the top 10% of all the people here on CM.  Good luck in your search.
